  • King Charles III's Coronation: Everything you need to know!
    The coronation of King Charles III is set to take place on the 6th of May 2023, and it is expected to be a significant event for the United Kingdom. As the successor to Queen Elizabeth II, Charles will not only become the King of the United Kingdom but also the head of the Commonwealth.
    The weight of the crown that Charles will wear during the coronation is more than two kilograms, symbolizing the phrase 'heavy is the head that wears the crown' quite literally. However, the weight of the crown is not just physical; it carries with it a great deal of responsibility and duty.
    London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is buzzing with excitement in anticipation of the coronation. The face of King Charles III can be seen everywhere, as the city prepares for this historic event. People from all over the world, as well as British citizens, are eagerly awaiting the ceremony.
    The coronation will take place at Westminster Abbey, a location steeped in history as the site of coronations for over 900 years. It is here that Charles will receive the St Edward's crown, officially becoming the King. The ceremony has been meticulously planned, with a codename dubbed Operation Golden Orb.
    However, alongside the excitement, there are also discussions surrounding the modernization of the monarchy. Charles III, at the age of 73, is the oldest British monarch to ascend the throne. In an effort to save money and streamline the royal family, Charles has announced a five-year modernization plan.
    This plan aims to make royal family members who do not engage in significant public duties more financially independent. The cost of the royal family to British taxpayers is substantial, and the modernization plan seeks to address this issue. As a result, the coronation ceremony itself is expected to be more modest compared to Queen Elizabeth II's coronation.
    According to reports, the taxpayer-funded coronation is estimated to cost over 110 million euros, making it a significant expense. Nevertheless, the coronation of King Charles III will mark a new chapter in the history of the United Kingdom and the monarchy.
  • Subtitles section
  • How much is it supposed to weigh?
  • More than two kilograms.
  • Two kilograms.
  • Heavy is the head that wears the crown?
  • Quite literally.
  • The weight of the crown is not only physical.
  • On the 6th of May 2023, Charles III will officially become King of the United Kingdom, which, if you haven't guessed, is where I'm from.
  • But what exactly will happen in London during the coronation and what will follow?
  • And what are Charles's plans to modernize the monarchy?
  • Today we look at London's main coronation hotspots.
  • The United Kingdom's capital has gone coronation crazy.
  • The face of King Charles III is seen at every turn.
  • The British and visitors alike are gearing up for the ceremony.
  • Not only will it officially make Charles King, but head of the Commonwealth as well.
  • Dubbed Operation Golden Orb, Charles's coronation has been planned down to the 2nd.
  • It will happen on the first weekend of May, after which Brits will receive an extra bank holiday.
  • It will take place here at Westminster Abbey, where kings and queens have been crowned for over 900 years.
  • And it's also here that Charles will receive the St Edward's crown, making him officially the king.
  • The elephant in the abbey is the modernization of the royal family.
  • Charles III was 73 when he became king, older than any British monarch before him.
  • Charles recently announced his five-year modernization plan to save money and slim down the royal family.
  • This means that royal family members who don't do a lot of publicity work will have to become more financially independent.
  • The royals cost their British subjects a pretty penny.
  • So to begin with, the coronation ceremony is to be a rather more modest affair than the one for Queen Elizabeth II.
  • According to British media, the taxpayer-funded coronation will cost over 110 million euros.
  • Some say this is out of touch, especially considering the UK's current cost-of-living crisis.
  • Coronation events will take place all over London, with landmarks like this one being illuminated in a big light show.
  • There's also a giant concert planned at Windsor Castle.
  • And although Elton John and Kylie Minogue have declined to perform, apparently Snoop Dogg has offered to step up to the lineup.
  • Back to the coronation itself.
  • Next stop, the Tower of London.
  • Charles isn't the only one to be crowned.
  • His wife Camilla, at the request of the late Queen, will be crowned Queen Consort.
  • Typically, she'd receive a brand new crown for this, but this time she'll receive the Queen Mary's crown, which is a nod towards greater sustainability from the royal family.
  • This, along with the St Edward's crown, is kept here in the Tower of London, alongside other royal jewels.
  • The crown will be personalised with diamonds, but it won't feature the Koh-i-Noor diamond, a diamond originating from the Indian subcontinent that's long been the subject of reparation demands.
  • Issues such as racism and the kingdom's colonial history have never actually received proper consideration by the British royal family.
  • Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, were the first to address them publicly.
  • These days, Europe's royal houses have a mostly representative function.
  • They're meant to remain politically neutral, something King Charles has had some trouble with.
  • Charles has been in the public eye for decades.
  • He still sits far behind the late Queen Elizabeth II in the royal popularity scale.
  • The whole family will take part in the coronation parade, which will be on this famous street, the Mall.
  • On the day, it will be absolutely packed with everyone trying to get a glimpse of the king.
  • But will he be a good king?
  • Let's see what the British people think.
  • So King Charles is, for English people, quite a controversial figure.
  • Everyone loved the queen.
  • It's interesting because that love for the queen is not quite translated into the new king.
  • I feel a bit bad saying it because he's waited a long time and he's done a lot of work.
  • But yeah, I think William would have been better.
  • Yes, he's going to be a good king.
  • As his personality and being towards the politician and leading after his mother, yes, he is.
  • I mean, his reign's not going to be very long, right?
  • So in a short-term space, I suppose it's how significant can it be?
  • I think he takes care of Britain and looks after it.
  • However the country develops under King Charles III's reign, one thing is for sure.
  • On the first weekend of May, all eyes will be on this balcony watching him as the newly crowned monarch.
  • The Britain that Charles inherits is a different Britain to that of his mother's.
  • However, everyone's excited to see what's in store for the new British monarchy.
